I had commissioned this massive project with a good friend of mine with the idea to add more classes to the inspirational piece, as that was all (except a few) of FFXIV's ARR classes.
Technically, MNK and NIN got the shaft again, which I might revisit later in another commission. (Same with BLU and RPR)
[Shining Armor as GNB](/images/3046816) [Princess Luna as DRK](/images/3046817) [Princess Celestia as AST](/images/3046818) [Princess Cadance as SGE](/images/3046822) (You are here!) [Scootaloo as SAM](/images/3046819) [Apple Bloom as MCH](/images/3046824) [Sweetie Belle as DNC](/images/3046820) [Sunset Shimmer as RDM](/images/3046821)
Why SGE? Really, just the nouliths (those 4 crystalline foci). Crystals. Crystal Empire. Add in the fact that SGE is a healer class, it seems to be a good fit to Shiny's GNB role. Of course, you can say that Twilight should have been SGE, but she's already a SCH in the inspirational piece.
